Step Two: Find a Time

Service Times

At Gloria Dei, we offer two main worship services in English with a special Discipleship Hour in between. We believe families grow stronger when they worship together, so during this time, kids and teens (K–12) enjoy age-appropriate ministries while parents dive into engaging Bible studies. It’s a great way for the whole family to connect, learn, and grow in faith!

This structured worship experience uses elements of the Divine Settings from the Lutheran Service Book (2006) and other expressions of traditional worship with organ, piano, and choir.

Traditional Worship

This style of worship provides the opportunity for individuals and families from all backgrounds to praise and glorify God through a fresh, modern worship experience. Music ranges in style from modern praise and worship songs to contemporary hymn melodies and modern hymn settings.

Contemporary Worship

9:45a Discipleship Hour

The purpose of this hour is to equip disciples of Jesus through teaching and fellowship, complementing worship and service opportunities.

For K-12 Kids, this means that they participate in age-appropriate classes that allow them to learn about God's word.

For adults, we encourage you to explore the different bible studies Gloria Dei has to offer.
